Setting Up General Accounting and Arrearage Information

Access the General Accounting/Arrearage Information form.

Effect on GL

Enter a code indicating whether you want journal entries passed from payroll to the general ledger and the method you want to use. Valid codes are:

N: Pass dollars only to the general ledger.

M: Do not pass dollars or hours to the general ledger. This code enables an accrual to be tracked in employee payroll history and the dollars to be omitted from the general ledger.

Generate A/P Voucher

Enter a code used to determine whether the system should generate a voucher for the DBA, tax, or wage attachment during the final update phase of the payroll processing cycle. Valid codes are:

N: No

Y: Yes

Select this option if you are integrating the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Payroll system with the Accounts Payable system and you need to activate vouchering for the DBA.

Payee

Enter the address book number for the supplier who receives the final payment.

In benefits administration, this is the address book number of the company that issues the plan and receives premium payments for it.

For wage attachments, the payee is the address book number of the agency, company, individual, or court that is to receive the payment of the check.

When you specify a payee, you should also select Generate A/P Voucher. If Generate A/P Voucher is not selected, the system might create an invalid journal entry.

For fund allocations, this is the address book number of the investment program.

Arrearage Method

Enter a code indicating how to adjust deductions when the employee is in a negative pay situation. Values are:

P: Do a partial or full deduction as needed. This is the default.

F: Do a full reduction or none at all.

N: Do not reduce.

Q: Same as code P. In addition, place the amount in arrears, but do not apply the limits when collecting the arrearage. Write the arrearage balance to history.

R: Same as code P. In addition, place the amount in arrears and apply the limits when collecting the arrearage. Write the arrearage balance to history.

When To Adjust Ded (when to adjust deductions)

Enter a code that specifies when the system adjusts, or backs an amount out of, deductions. Values are:

0: Adjust deductions marked with 0 before payroll taxes.

1: Adjust deductions marked with 0, and then adjust those marked with 1 before payroll taxes.

2: Adjust payroll taxes before the deductions marked with 2. (This value is for future use.)

Order To Adjust Ded (order to adjust deductions)

If an employee's gross pay does not cover deductions, a code in this field tells the system in what order it should satisfy deductions. Valid codes are 0001 through 9999. The system starts with the highest code. For example, 9999 is deducted before 0001.
